Description

RayKo is proud to present a show that features the work of 3 artists who have been obsessively photographing their families for years. No cute kid pictures here. Instead, there are the documentary images of Jason Houston who works as a photojournalist and who spends most of his time on assignment for editorial and NGO clients. His series, "Family Of Mine" explores the sometimes tense dichotomies that define American family life. Houston then prints these images as 30x40” color prints, the exact opposite of the 4x6” family snapshot. Then Katrina d’Autremont’s body of work, " Si Dios Quiere…" (If God Wants) explores issues of intimacy and distance within her mother’s family in Argentina. And finally, “Boyland”. For this series, Steve Bliss has committed to shooting the 8x10” camera whose clarity and beauty still seems to outshine most digital possibilities. Bliss makes giant negatives of his small boys. Three photographers exploring their three very different families.
